Nice one! Amazingly I have yet to try veneering but it's definitely on the to do list, especially as I am setting up a carpentry business 
Top tip for anything that uses a blade, if you have access to a buffing wheel (you can often fit them to bench grinders) buff the blade before using, it makes it twice as sharp. This goes for all blades/irons, whether it be planes, spokeshaves, chisels or cabinet scrapers. Don't go through the veneer though! :D
